I have met my monster who's enraged by invalidation
His presence makes me feel out of control
My life is never my own in such a situation
And I won't play the what-I-was-born-to role

I have struggled for insight and am beaten but successful
The lumps I took strengthened my resolve
To have the faith I'd see it through and know the bliss of peace
It's what I need to help me to evolve

Walking down the path I'm given (I don't think I asked for this)
I'm humbled now and just as well amused
New life has taught me how to laugh (who knew that I forgot)
It explains a lot how I was so confused

And of course in much denial (It's nothing new to me)
But inch by inch I succeed a little more
And now I know my monster can sabotage it all
If I don't keep him on his side of the door

I need to learn to love myself (Unless I do who will)
My existence is a gift from God to me
Now I know how to feel with my heart - The proof is on
The inside - Something you can't see

And yet it's just a language I slowly had to learn
My path is never straight but serpentine
And now I know it daily (At least that much I've learned)
While moving along this blessed path of mine
